Giveaway — ‘Ashes of Time Redux’ Soundtrack

April 30th, 2009 in GiveAways, Movie News, Soundtrack -

 

 CELLIST YO-YO MA IS FEATURED SOLOIST

ON ASHES OF TIME REDUX SCORE

 

Sony Classical Soundtrack available digitally Today!

 

After his acclaimed performances on the soundtracks of Memoirs of a Geisha and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, cellist Yo-Yo Ma is the featured soloist throughout the score for the Sony Pictures Classics film, Ashes of Time Redux directed by Wong Kar Wai. Hailed as “gloriously superb” by the Los Angeles Times, the epic martial arts film has been restored and is now available on DVD from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.  The film’s soundtrack recording on Sony Classical is available online through all digital service providers on March 3, 2009.

 

Originally completed in 1994, Ashes of Time Redux received a limited release and, in the years since, the existing prints and negatives had become damaged or destroyed.  “To rectify this situation,” Wong Kar Wai states, “we decided to revisit this project and to create the definitive version.”  He and his colleagues began the process by gathering as much existing material as could be found and restoring those elements, using advanced technology that had not existed in the early ‘90’s. He also collaborated with Yo-Yo Ma to create a new soundtrack, rearranging some of the original compositions by Freddie Chan and adding some original ones.  

 

Screenhead and Sony Masterworks are teamed up to giveaway a digital copy of the soundtrack to Ashes of Time Redux.  To enter, post your name and Screenhead will pick the winner Friday, May 15, 2009.
